Yes!!!!! What a couple!!

<strong>What a thrill ride!</strong>

Ah, my lovelies, whilst I lie sick in bed writing this review I crave not medicines and elixirs: I crave Crane (and of course, Stephen).
Yes, their story is over for the most part. I’m told they pop in for the next book, but it’s not the same really, is it?

Here our very proper Crane and his very filthy mouth finds himself in dire straits. Thank goodness for that mouth of his for he puts it to good use in attempting to save not only himself, but his lover Stephen against the evil machinations of a warlock gone mad.

Treachery is afoot in this third installment and it comes from unexpected places. There is a huge tug of war between Crane and Stephen over his dangerous job and Crane’s desire to return to China. Will duty or desire win?

Needless to say, an HEA is in store for our mismatched lovers, at least for now. I’ve been ripping through this series in audiobook and let me tell you, every penny was worth it. I started the next book in the Charm of Magpie World starring a character here and a new one. No Crane or Stephen yet, but I know they’ll make an appearance.

These books are phenomenal, even more so in audiobook....HIGHLY recommended, especially the sex scenes as Crane likes to be bossy in bed and Stephen loves him that way!

Great story, characters, and prose!

I've only just started reading in the romance category, and as I've blundered about looking for good books to read, I came upon the "A Charm of Magpies" series by K. J. Charles. Book 1 was a wonderful surprise. The writing is top shelf with witty, evocative, and fresh. Charles is a masterful talent, taking the familiar tropes and beats of the genre and employing them in clever ways that made them seem new and interesting. When I finished book 1 ("The Magpie Lord") I immediately devoured every book in the series with ever increasing delight. This one, "Flight of Magpies" was particularly was fun.

I also cannot praise enough the performance by Cornell Collins. I absolutely loved listening to his readings of these books. His voice is pleasant to listen to, and his characterizations fit perfectly for me. He made an already fun series of books even more enjoyable. I highly recommend this book and all the books in the "A Charm of Magpies" series.

Loved it.

Loved it. Charming. Great characters. Wish there was more. Love her other books as we'll, but this series is my favorite.

nothing but arguing

everybody's mad at everybody. Everybody's misled by the villain who is off stage manipulating the anger without resolution. skipped numerous chapters trying to get to the plot which only happens about 1 minute each chapter

sigh

It almost physically hurts that this trilogy is over. Stephen and Lucien are one of my favorite couples ever. Seriously, top 10. Many thanks for also including the short stories that go with the series. It was a wonderful surprise.

love this book!

so I have been through three in this series. so the story of Setphen and Lucian. I love them. ❤️ this book was great! I loved all the drama and closeness of the two main men.

I felt this book was a good as the first and better the the second. I am interested to see where the next two stories dealing with newer characters takes me.

Loved It

I'm seriously so sad this series is over. I loved the characters. The story. The narration. Everything about it. The live scenes were steamy, and a joy to listen to, and the story never got old. I'm so happy to have given this series a try despite it having not originally been on my radar. I will very much be delving further into this authors works!

KJ Charles does it again

Though I preferred the first two books, this one was just as good. I am now left wondering what I will do when the series ends. I will most definitely have to find other books to indulge in.
The characters and storyline are definitely on point. Most importantly, I can envsion everything so clearly as if i was there myself.

Absolutely brilliant

Perfect story, flawless narration. What else do we want? Yes of course: more Flight of Magpies books. I think three are not enough. I can't express how thorougly I enjoyed these stories. And Cornell Collins' narration turns them into a feast!
